Hello everyone,
I know that many times it is suggested that one should not train to momentary muscular failure when training for strength. I however have seen no evidence scientifically that supports this viewpoint( not to say that there isn't evidence).
momentary muscular failure = completing repetitions of a particular exercise until you can no longer achieve another repetition using correct form/technique. This happens way sooner then true failure which is when you literally can not lift the weight.
What are the mechanisms physiologically for why we should not train to failure? I have seen almost no evidence. And the mechanisms that people have suggested have almost no evidence.( one example is that of hebbian mecahanisms). Also another problem I see is that many people cite research to me by russians, or other foreign scientists, but I can not get any of the primary research to see if there research design, metrics, question being studied, etc. actually helps to prove what they are saying. I just do not think we can trust research that we do not have access to.
I love the science behind why these things occur and really hope someone has some good stuff for me to research
